Not Matte, Very Glossy, BurnsI bought this product in Grey Envy and when I first applied it went on very glossy and poorly. I gave it time to "set". After an hour there was no change. I then lined the outside of my lips and "gradually built up the color" as recommended with no different outcome even after 30 minutes. Ultimately, I tried applying this product 8 different ways, with primer, without, with dabbing (all the lipstick comes off if you use a tissue), even with powder (it moves around a lot and clumps). Just an awful time, if it had worked with a tissue or the powder (which it shouldn't require as it clearly says matte) I wouldn't have been so miffed, but this stuff just doesn't work.

I love it!I was looking for the blurred lines matte pencil that came out about two years ago in pink. I could no longer find it, so I pretty much just assumed they no longer had it (discontinued maybe?). I was desperate to find a pink matte lipstick, so I gave this a try. I knew first hand that it wasn't really the matte I was looking for. This is not really a dry matte, it's more semi matte. I personally didn't find it to be glossy, or shiny. The color was very vibrant, yet opaque. I will say that I did notice a burning feeling while it was setting to my lips! Nothing painful, just concerning. Once it set, I no longer noticed it. If you want a vibrant color, and you're okay with semi matte, definitely try this out!

Why? Color is sooo pretty but...I've been staring at possesed plum for months and finally bought it and while the color is exactly what I wanted I have many issues. Chief of which is that it is a nightmare to apply. It's goopy and doesn't apply evenly, it's so bad that I had to use my fingers and a good 15mins just to get it to a decent opaqueness and then more time to even up the lines around my mouth. It's also just not going to stay put which is something I need if I'm going to bother with liquid liner. It also burns while it sets which while it doesn't hurt is annoying. Sigh, I really love the color but it wasn't worth what I paid for it.

Wish it workedI was so excited to try this matte liquid lipstick in grey, I bought it the moment I saw it! While the color is modern, it is quite difficult to apply, it's sticky, takes time to achieve perfect coverage and never really becomes matte. It's impossible to keep it looking good because it smudges and wears off even if your lips touch each other... If I dare use a tissue to press down and remove some of the 'goopiness', it completely disappears! I'm disappointed because Maybelline is one of my go-to brands and their other liquid lipstick formulas have never failed me.
I really wanted this to work since grey lipsticks are hard to come by and every brand nowadays are pushing beauty and color boundaries.

Love itI LOVE this lipstick. Every other matte lipstick I have used dries my lips out so bad, and after a few hours it looks awful. This lipstick keeps my lips soft and hydrated. A lot of ppl say its not matte, thing is if you put on a whole lot on at once it has a sheen to it. You gotta just put on a bit and wait a sec and put on another coat if you need it. I will admit the gray and purple take a few coats to get full coverage for me.

My lips only betterFinally a liquid matte that is not drying and stays its true color. I like the stained and natural and Grey Envy does that for me. I am low maintenance when it comes to makeup. I hate lipliners. This is no fuss. I bought this product yesterday. I was looking for a natural color that I could dress up or down. When you apply it there is a slight scent but it goes away. The best part for me is.....it DID NOT break my sensitive lips out! This is huge for me as I don't have to spend a fortune to get the look I want. I can throw away my other matte lipsticks/glosses away. Great job! Thank you Maybelline and whatever you do, PLEASE, PRETTY PLEASE DO NOT DISCONTINUE GREY ENVY!!!!!!

Love Smokey Rose!Last year I wasn't a fan of Berry Boost in this line. It didn't last very long. These don't fully dry down matte, but I have no problem with that. It's more like a comfortable matte finish where the gloss effect fades. Smokey Rose I decided to try this time. This one left a nice stain on the lips, along with a dark liner look around the lips. I loved the faded stain look; however did not like the liner around the lips part. It does transfer. I had barely noticeable smear of this on my chin after eating. Other than that, I love this shade and am glad I bought it.

TerribleI bought 2 of these thinking I would absolutely love them (+ there was a great color selection). Boy was I wrong! These are awful. They are not matte, they never dry, and they are incredibly sheer. They're basically glorified lip gloss with an incorrect label. Don't waste your time or money...unless, ya know, you want a product that comes off after 30 minutes and doesn't apply fully.

I really like the color of the vivid matte 02 grey envy. Is there a long lasting liquid lipstick color that is compared or close to that shade?

What lip liner for orchid shock? Love the color!

Asked by: Ann in black forest

We recommend using the Color Sensational Shaping Lip Liner Use this to define your lip shape a coordinating shade, a matching nude or create bold definition by lining your lips in a darker shade. The lip options are endless! If in doubt, select a shade that matches your natural lip color, like the purely nude, nude whisper or totally toffee.
